Dear Cattie,
Haven’t received a letter from you for almost two weeks. But I haven’t written either. I’ve been on a job for over a week and haven’t written to anyone. I returned yesterday, and had quite a few letters, mostly from Emma Lee; but it will take all this week to get caught up, if nothing interferes.
Oh yes, I received your box of stationary, upon which I’m writing. Thanks a lot “Cattie”, and I “sorta” wish that you’d sent more. It won’t last longer’n a week. Guess I write about twenty letters a week when I’m not busy.
Just finished a bacon and (fresh) egg sandwich, which is a rarity with us. It was certainly good, and I’m in a much better writing mood now. Ha Ha I have plenty to drink too, but this isn’t a novelty, so I’d rather eat.
Seems like
the big drive is on, and perhaps we’ll reach the
Cattie, it’s so difficult writing now. Our social life is completely nil; and there isn’t much that I’m permitted to tell you about our army life. So, I suppose I’ll have to close now, as I can’t think of anything else. Tell Joe and Aunt Irene “hello”, and I’ll try to write again soon.
Lots of love
Urbey
